Hi, I have a character vector as below: a<-c('10','3R','4','4R','5','5R','6','6R','7','8','9','7R','1','10R','11' ,'11R','12','12R','13','13R','14','14R','15','15R','1R','2','2R','3','8R' ,'9R')
Is there a clever way to sort this easily to return a vector of index that would produce a vector as below: a[index]: [1] "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "10" [11] "11" "12" "13" "14" "15" "1R" "2R" "3R" "4R" "5R" [21] "6R" "7R" "8R" "9R" "10R" "11R" "12R" "13R" "14R" "15R" Thanks, John [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
